Tips for Mothers - Part 2

 Original Post published on Sept 2, 2020

Yes again I repeat its an amazing feeling to be a mother.

Whenever my children calls me mummy, I feel elated in my spirit, I love to hear it again and again, because very soon they'll grow up and leave home either to study or for a new job or they will get married and leave your home, then you will not hear that beautiful voice again so let's enjoy their presence when they are at home growing up doing all kind of naughty little things making a noise etc. I always love to have my children at home when they were growing up. Never once I felt they are troublesome or a nuisance. We enjoyed their presence always.

Children are active only to a certain age .They will  calm down, their innocent behavior might disturb our sleep,work etc so dear 
mothers it will all disappear once they reach a certain age, so let's give our time to our children now and when we get old they will give their time to us. 

Never complain about your children to others, rather you should defend your children before others even when our children have done something wrong, I learnt this from Jesus when he defended his disciples few times before pharisees, what they did what was wrong according to the law, Jesus always defended his disciples, but also make sure you admonish and instruct them when they are alone with you and always encourage them, because there are lots and lots of pharisees around us who will find fault with our children, if we don't speak  for them who else will understand and stand with them?

Let's also get to know our children's friends. We need to take time to find out what kind of friends they have, its very important, because the Bible says bad company corrupts good morals - 1 Corinthians 15:33.  Its true however  much we have taught them good values in life their friends can undo it, if we are not careful about this aspect of their lives. 

I've read a statistic about the influences of friends on our children, It has been said 70% is their friends, only remaining 30% is our influence. So we have to be very careful and constantly pray for our children that they will not get influenced by bad company.

Another important thing I want to mention here for mothers  is to be on our guard against Satan and his schemes. Present day technology can distract us and  sometimes it takes us away from our devotion to our Lord.

Let's be honest and humble  before our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and pray for our children. In his last message before going to the cross, Jesus told us mothers, "don't weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children". He knows what difficult times are ahead, so we have to weep and pray for our children. As I said earlier that a Mother's prayers are always answered, that's my testimony.

Let's together be united and pray for each other and for our children with burden.

May God bless each one of you & your families.

love in Christ!

My Journey - A personal Story

Greetings to you all in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ dear mother, friends and anyone reading today. I pray and hope you all are happy and healthy by God’s grace. I had a recent heath challenge that I went through   over the last 10 months, I thought I will share with you all and trust it will encourage you. By God’s grace I am back to being able to do all my routine tasks, like taking care of my home, family, cooking, gardening etc., I felt it will be something good to share in order to bring awareness to many women. I read a beautiful quote “Enjoy the little things in life for one day you may look back and realize they were big things” They may be small pleasures but are truly precious. As mothers we overlook this simple joy and worry about what is to come. Life is filled with uncertainties. Enjoy the little things, for they will surely lighten the heart.” I’ve never expected that I’ll get cancer at any part of my life. Never had a family history. I’ve never had a f...

My Son and Me

My beloved son Vijay Peter Dhanraj went home to be with the Lord Jesus on 18th Sept, 2018. Its been 2 years..... So today with a heavy heart I am writing about my son Vijay and me. Indeed it was a real joy to have a son like Vijay. As he was growing up, it was like having Jesus in our home. Never once I remember him saying no to anything we asked him to do. He was a very obedient son. Early in his life he took on the responsibilities of the family.  I remember one time when he was about 4 years old, I had to stay awake taking care of one of my other sons who was a baby, at that time,Vijay was sitting up coughing, I got up to bring water,Vijay told me, mummy you sit with the baby I'll go get it myself.  He is very thoughtful of other’s need. He was hardworking, sincere, faithful & honest. He was a such a blessing wherever God took him. He never asked anything for himself even things like food, clothes, toys etc., he never got what he liked, when he was growing up, he gave ...

Always Pray and Never lose heart

  Greetings to all my dear Mothers and Sisters and all who are reading this today! Hope you all are doing well by God’s grace and mercy, may we remind ourselves that it is indeed God's mercy that we are most privileged people to have life and good health. Let’s not take it for granted dear mothers. I consider each day as a gift from God for me.   I was thinking of the importance of praying through hard times and finding strength in God’s presence. This book was gifted to me by one of my best friend; I felt that it came at the right time, as I read I was blessed and it was very helpful in my present situation hence I thought it will bless you all, so I am sharing a few thoughts on that. “Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the people as much as adversity has.” says Billy Graham. Yes, we lean on God more when we go through adversity than in good times. He allows certain sufferings to certain  people whom he loves, because he wants them to trust Him and com...
